SAFETY AND COMPLIANCE

The purpose of this user's manual is to provide a set of easy to use instructions for the proper use of the
system. All of the information contained herein is based on the current version of the system. Technix S.p.A.
reserves the right to improve and implement changes to the information herein to reflect any changes
necessitated by technological enhancements to the system.
This x-ray unit must be used in strict compliance with the safety instructions contained in this
manual and must not be used for purposes other those for which it was intended
The x-ray unit may only be operated by skilled, properly trained personnel with the required
knowledge of x-ray safety practices and the proper use of x-ray equipment.
The operator is responsible for the use of the system in compliance with the applicable standards concerning
installation and use.
The unit must not be operated when electrical, mechanical, or radiological faults are present
or when any of the indicators or alarm devices are malfunctioning.
When used in conjunction with other apparatus, components, or modules, whose
compatibility is uncertain, it is necessary to ensure the absence of any danger to the patient
or operator. Consult Technix S.p.A. for information.
Technix S.p.A. is responsible for the safety of its products only when maintenance, repairs, or
modifications have been performed by Technix S.p.A. or by personnel authorized by Technix
S.p.A. in writing.
As with any technical apparatus, this x-ray unit must be used properly with periodic checks
and maintenance as specified in the chapter Programmed maintenance.
The system safety circuits and devices must not, for any reason, be moved, modified, or
omitted.
Technix S.p.A. cannot be held liable for any malfunction, damage, or danger resulting from improper use of
the system or non-compliance with the rules for proper maintenance.
1.1.
Electrical safety
1.2.
Only trained service personnel authorized by Technix S.p.A. may remove the unit covers and
only in accordance with the instructions contained in the Service Manual.
This X-ray unit may only be used in environments or medical rooms in compliance with the
applicable IEC standards.
The X-ray unit must not be used in areas where there exists a danger of explosion.

Mechanical safety
Pag. 2/34- Rev.4
After positioning the unit, engage the parking brakes.

Only use the proper handles to move the unit.
Avoid collision with obstacles.
Technix S.p.A.
1.3.
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)

This apparatus is in compliance with the applicable rule regarding EMC, Directive 89/336, that defines the
max. allowed emission levels from electronic devices and the required immunity from interference caused by
externally generated electromagnetic fields
It is not, however, possible to exclude radio signals coming from transmitters such as mobile phones or
similar mobile radio devices. These and other transmitting devices, including those in compliance with the
EMC standards, may influence the proper functioning of medical apparatus when used in proximity and with
a relatively high transmitting power. Therefore, the use of radio equipment proximity to electronically
controlled systems must be avoided in order to eliminate any interference risk.
Explanation:
The electronic apparatus that meets the EMC standards has been designed so that, under normal conditions,
any malfunctioning risk, caused by electromagnetic interferences, is avoided.
However, if radio signals coming from high frequency transmitters with a relatively high transmitting power are
used near the electronic apparatus, the risk of electromagnetic incompatibility cannot be completely
controlled.
Any transmissions by mobile radio equipment must be avoided.
Mobile phones must be switched off in zones close to the unit.
These rules must be applied when the unit is switched on (that is to say connected to the mains
and ready for use).
1.4.
Protection against ionizing radiation

Before any x-ray exposure, ensure that all the necessary protective precautions have been
taken.
During the use of x-rays, personnel present in the room must comply with the following rules concerning
protection against ionizing radiation:
When necessary, use protective shielding against radiation in addition to the shielding already provided
on the unit.
Use protective aprons containing a material equivalent to 0,35mm of lead. Material of this nature
reduces radiation at 50kV by 99,95% and at 100kV by 94,5%.
The best protection against radiation is distance. It is therefore recommended that you stay as far as
possible from the x-ray source and the exposure target. For this purpose, use all of the cable length
provided for the foot-switch.
Avoid walking or standing directly in the x-ray beam.
Always use the smallest possible field of exposure by closing properly the collimator diaphragms. The
scatter dose produced depends principally on the volume of the irradiated object.
Never modify or disconnect the safety circuits or devices designed to prevent accidental
exposures.

General disposal
Technix S.p.A. produces radiological systems that are advanced in terms of safety and environmental
protection. Assuming that the unit is properly used, there is no risk to people or the environment.
In order to comply with applicable safety requirements, it is necessary to use materials that may be harmful to
the environment (for example: monobloc oil, protective lead, boards and electronic components). Therefore,
where necessary, proper disposal methods, according to the regulations of the country where the unit is
installed, should be followed.
For this reason, the unit may not be disposed of along with industrial or domestic waste and
must be regarded as hazardous waste.
This symbol indicates that the wastes resulting from the electric and electronic units have not to
be disposed as undifferentiated town wastes and they have to be picked up separately.
The proper differentiated collection for the following start of the unit disused to the recycle,
treatment and disposal, compatible with the environment, aid to prevent possible negative
effects on the environment and health and it favours the recycle of materials that compose the
unit.
The abusive disposal of the product from the user implies the application of administrative
sanctions according to the Standards in force of the unit installation country.
For information concerning the dismantling modes of the units out of use, stick to the local
provisions or contact an representative authorized by the manufacturer.
For additional information, contact Technix S.p.A.
1.6.
Application & final destination

This unit is a portable x-ray system aimed to fulfil a wide range of clinical applications; it must be operated
exclusively by qualified, trained personnel who have been informed of the risks linked to the use of ionizing
radiation.
The compactness and maneuverability of the unit enables the operator to navigate through obstacles such as
doors, small rooms, narrow aisles and lifts with ease and allows accurate positioning between patient beds.
The ergonomic design of the unit allows the operator excellent visibility during operation and movement.
The perfectly balanced monobloc arm allows free movement and positioning even in the more awkward
positions. The shape of the base allows easy positioning and handling under the patient beds. The position
and shape of the four antistatic wheels make the system easy to move even on coarse surfaces.
The system does not belong to the category of equipment designed for continuous operation.
The system is not used in direct contact with the patient; however, accidental contact of some unit parts with
the patient and operator is possible.
Contact with the patient is non-invasive.
Contact with the operator is strictly for reasons linked to the use of the equipment (normal operation).
The unit is suitable to be used for x-ray examinations and diagnosis dedicated to:
Operating theater
Sport medicine
Plaster room
First aid
Pediatrics
Orthopaedics
This x-ray unit must not be used in areas where danger of explosion exists.

Perform an exposure
TMS300 provides for two different modes to perform an exposure:
HANDSWITCH mode: the exposure is performed with the x-ray

control supplied with the unit.
CORDLESS mode: the exposure is performed with the infrared

remote control available as accessory.
In order to change the x-ray control mode, it is enough to bring the choice
switch on the mode fitter for use.
HANDSWITCH Mode
Before performing an exposure, make sure that all the necessary precautions against radiation
have been taken.
After a long idle period (3 months or more) it is very important to proceed with the X-RAY TUBE
SEASONING. It is necessary to avoid high voltage discharges that could be destructive for the Xray tube. The seasoning procedure is described in the Service Manual.
Keep away as much as possible from the x-ray

source
If on the display "READY" appears and the READY
led is ON, the exposure can be controlled.
The emission control is made up of a two-steps
switch.
1step: preparation (about 1 s)
2step: exposure control
It is possible to press the exposure control at once
(second step). Then there is a delay of about 1.2
s before the real exposure.
Hold the x-ray control down till the exposure has
been performed properly (3 beeps).
1 step prep
2 step rad
Figure 14
The x-ray handswitch activates both the x-ray preparation phase prep and the emission phase rad. The
Figure 14 shows how to operate the handswitch to activate the preparation and the emission phases. It is not
possible to activate the emission phase rad without preparation; however, it is possible to perform
preparation without activating the emission.
The most frequent alarms during the use of the x-ray handswitch are the following:
1.
2.
TIME OUT The x-ray handswitch has been pressed at the 1st step (preparation) for more than 15s. In
order to perform radiography, it is necessary to release the handswitch and repeat the procedure.
MAN STOP RX The x-ray handswitch has been released before the end of exposure. In this case, the
display will show the radiological data obtained. In order to repeat the exposure, it is necessary to press
RESET.
CORDLESS Mode
The x-ray infrared control has got two push-buttons, one
for the lighting-ON of the collimator lamp and one for
activating both the x-ray preparation phase prep and
the emission phase rad.
Lamp lighting-ON For lighting ON the collimator lamp
press the relative key, the lamp will light OFF after the
lighting-ON time of 30sec.
Preparation phase prep press and release the pushbutton prep + rad.
Emission phase rad Press twice the x-ray push- button
prep + rad within 15sec. and hold it down till the
exposure is finished. When the exposure has been
completed, the unit emits three beeps. Put the remote
control in its seat on the unit again.

Useful information
4.5.5.
Only if the display shows the writing READY and the READY led is ON, it is possible to
perform an exposure.
The 1st line of the display shows the use messages and the error signals.
The 4th line of the display shows the radiological parameters.
After every exposure, the 4th line shows the radiological parameters and, in the middle, the
exposure time.
While shifting from APR MODE (Anatomical programming) to the MANUAL MODE,
radiological parameters do not change.
Optional: dosimeter (DAPmeter)

The unit can be supplied, on request, with a ionizing chamber dosimeter (dose-area product meter, DAP
meter) installed. The DAPmeter function is to measure the dose-area product [cGgcm2] in output towards the
patient.
The device that can be installed is type PTW-Freiburg DIAMENTOR CI-P.
Only authorized service personnel can perform the installation and the maintenance of the dosimeter.
If DAPmeter has been installed and it works properly, the first line of the display shows alternatively the
measures summation and the measurement unit [cGycm2]:
READY
0 00 0 . 0 0
READY
c G y cm2
The measures summation is the sum of all the dose-area products read by the chamber. By pressing
F1+RESET, the value resets.
dosei areai
i =1
n is the number of exposures performed after the last time that F1+RESET has been pressed.
In order to determine the correct Dose Area Product to which the patient has been exposed, it is necessary to
press F1+RESET between each patient.
The possible measuring range is included between 0000,00cGycm2 and 9999,99cGycm2. When the
measures summation exceeds 9999,99cGycm2, the message MAXDOSE will appear. The presence of this
message does not exclude the possibility to perform exposures.
Data printing

Cleaning
Please take the following information into consideration before choosing a detergent:
To clean plastic surfaces, simply use water and soap, and nothing else. If other detergents are used (e.g.
with a high alcoholic content, or corrosive solvents, or abrasive detergents), the material will tend to
break or opacify.
To clean enameled parts and aluminium surfaces, simply rub them with a wet cloth and a delicate
detergent, after that rub them with a dry wool cloth.
As regards, chromium-plated surfaces, only rub them using dry wool clothes; do not use any detergent.
To clean the other surfaces of the equipment, never use highly alcoholic products, corrosive or abrasive
detergents and solvents
Before cleaning the unit, please take the following actions:
Turn off the unit and unplug the mains power supply cable.
Ensure that no liquid seeps into the unit, so as to avoid short-circuiting or corroding the electrical and
electromechanical parts.
5.4.
Disinfection
To disinfect the equipment its advisable to use a common liquid solution featuring an aldehyde base or
disinfectants featuring an ampholytic surface-active agent base (e.g. Tego 103, Korsolin).
Substitute disinfectants releasing chlorine or based on phenols are likely to weaken the materials, hence they
are much to be avoided. The same limitations apply to undiluted solutions featuring a high alcoholic content.
Do not use disinfectant spray; it might penetrate the system, and its safety would not be guaranteed any
longer (damages possibly affecting electrical and electromechanical parts, formation of flammable air
mixtures and vapor solutions).
In cases where there is a danger that disinfection products may form inflammable or explosive
gaseous mixtures, always ensure that such gases have dispersed before re-using the
equipment.
